We are so sad to hear of the passing of Jerry. He was always a fun, joking and caring person. Although we never saw him very much, he was always considered part of our lives. Sending hugs to all of his family from the Wilson kids. ❤️ Bev (Bruce) Bower, Gerald, Kelly and Gary (Donna) Wilson
So very sorry. What a wonderful kind person Jerry was💕 Hugs to all of you. I'm sure he will be missed dearly🌺 Carolyne Houck
This breaks my heart. Both Anne + Jerry were the most welcoming parents a friend could have. Always joking around, and sweet toward each other + all of their kids' friends. I spent a lot of time growing up in their household and cannot say enough nice things about all of them. My family appreciated and truly cared for theirs, and the way they treated us. I will always remember Jerry doodling art sketches, while we were watching our trash tv like Days of our Lives, l
He also helped out family with our Christmas Trees for years
He helped us build our forts, and listened to us talk mindlessly about silly boys as long as he could stand it, haha.
Josh, Genie, Hailey - Your dad was one in a million and I'm really sorry to hear that you lost him so young. Even when his body got older, he was still the same young hearted guy we all knew and loved so dear. 🫶 His spirit is still with us, I'm sure of it.

Sending love to you all.
